Abstract

Background and Objective: Non-biodegradation in nature and creation of adverse health effects in humans is important features of Heavy metals. The main objective of this study was to determine the level of contamination, carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic Risks of Falling dust containing Heavy metals on residents around the industrial areas of Ardakan. Another objective was to identify potential sources of heavy metal release into the environment. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional analytical study, the Falling dust was collected in summer around Tile and Ceramic, Khak-e-chini, sand and gravel and glass Industries by installing 35 Inverted Frisbee traps with artificial grass cover. The concentration of Cd, Ba, Cu, Ni, Cr, Mn and V were measured by ICP-MS. Probable sources of the heavy metal of the dust were evaluated using Pearson correlation coefficient and cluster analysis. Ecological Risk indices for determining the level of contamination and proposed relationships proposed by the US Environmental Protection Agency were used to assess the carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic Risks. Results: The highest and lowest mean concentrations of Heavy metals were measured for Cd and Ba, respectively. The results of Pearson correlation analysis and cluster analysis revealed three anthropogenic and also natural sources for Heavy metals of the Falling dust. According to the Ecological Risk Potential Index, Cd in 45. 10% of the samples was in a very high class and in 54. 88% of the samples was a high class. Pollution class of the ecological Risk index of all the Heavy metals was medium to high. The carcinogenic Risk of Cr and Ba in children and adults was estimated to be higher than 10– 4. In both age groups, the Hazard index for each metal was less than 1 and its sum was measured as 1. 29 for children and 0. 16 for adults. Conclusion: Cd increases the ecological Risk of the Falling dust in the area. Ther heavy metal carcinogenic Risk results showed that the concentrations of Cr and Ba were higher than standard. Also, the non-carcinogenic Risk was higher in children than in adults.
